Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
This study will enrol up to 40 participants in up to 5 cohorts, the 5th Cohort (Cohort 4b) will be a repeat dose of Cohort 4a. The dose administered in each cohort will be:
Cohort 1 - 30ug
Cohort 2 - 90ug
Cohort 3 - 270ug
Cohort 4a - 540ug
Cohort 4b - 540ug or maximum tolerated dose (MTD)

Each cohort will consist of 8 unique participants (6 assigned to Gemini), sentinel dosing will be conducted in cohorts 1, 2, 3 and 4a. Sentinal dosing will not be required for Cohort 4b since the dose is a repeat of Cohort 4 a. Additional participants (up to 8) may be necessary if a dose limiting toxicity (DLT) occurs.

All participants will be screened for eligibility before enrolment. Screened participants who provide written informed consent and meet all eligibility criteria will be admitted to the clinical research unit (CRU) on Day -1.

On Day 1, each study participant will receive a single intravenous dose via syringe pump for at least 10 minutes but not longer than 15 minutes.

Two participants in each cohort, each participant will receive a single intravenous (sentinel) dose. If either participant experiences a dose DLT, or meets the criteria for stopping doses prior to Day 2/Hour 24, the cohort will be stopped. Sentinel dosing will not be required for Cohort 4b since the dose is a repeat of Cohort 4a.

Participants will be confined on Day -1 and discharged on Day 2 after all study procedures are complete. All other visits will be conducted as an outpatient or via telephone.

The study drug will be administered to eligible participants under the supervision of the PI or identified Sub-I(s). The pharmacist or designee will maintain records of investigational product receipt, preparation, and dispensing, including the applicable lot numbers, and total drug administered. Any discrepancy between the assigned dose and dose administered, as well as the reason for the discrepancy, are to be recorded in the source documents and the eCRF.

Statistical methods / analysis
Data will be summarised using descriptive statistics (number of observations, mean, median, standard deviation [SD], minimum and maximum) or frequency counts and percentages, as appropriate to the type of data
Demographics, baseline characteristics, medical history, disposition, and concomitant medication data will be presented by treatment group and for all participants overall. All other results will be presented by treatment group (Gemini or placebo).
Unless specifically stated otherwise, two-sided 95% confidence intervals (CIs) will be displayed where appropriate. All inferential analyses will be performed using two-sided tests at a 5% level of significance.
All data will be included in the data listings.
For the safety analyses, the period baseline value will be defined as the last available non-missing pre-dose measurement within each of the periods. The overall baseline will be defined as the last available non-missing pre-dose measurement before study drug administration.
